 - IDE and version :  **Visual Studio Entreprise 2019 v 16.7.5**

No where I see documentation for implementation. I started form [this post](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net/issues/4727) to get a valid token by implementing `ServiceClientCredentials`

after that I tired this code:

```c#
public async Task<ProductContract> CreateAPIMroducts(myContract myData)
        {
            var serviceCredentials = new AzureApiManagementServiceCredentials(); //in this class I implement ServiceClientCredentials

            ApiManagementClient myClient = new ApiManagementClient(serviceCredentials);

            ProductContract productContract = new ProductContract("displayName");

            ProductContract result =await myClient .Product.CreateOrUpdateAsync(myData.ResourceGroupName, myData.ServiceName, myData.ProductId, productContract);
            return result;
        }

So I'm trying to create new Product into my APIM instance but I got this error: Microsoft.Rest.ValidationException: 'this.Client.SubscriptionId' cannot be null.

What I understand is to assign my subscription with the client I use but I don't know if I'm right or not and how to do it

Can you please challenge me with your ideas?

thank you! 😊

Thank you for your feedback. Tagging and routing to the team member best able to assist.

@TarekMansour , can you try adding myClient.SubscriptionId = "xxxx"; after client contruction? That should at least fix this error. Also I didn't see any assignment to productContract's properties.

@allenjzhang Thank you! yes it works by adding myClient.SubscriptionId = "xxxx";

At the beginning I was testing the SDK that's why for productContract's properties I just initiate the displayName(required field) now I'm calling that method from another service where I prepare the ProductContract.

More than adding myClient.SubscriptionId = "xxxx";, we need to override ProcessHttpRequestAsync to use the authentication token as an Authorization header:

public override async Task ProcessHttpRequestAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
        {
            if (request == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("request");

            if (AuthenticationToken == null) throw new InvalidOperationException("Token Provider Cannot Be Null");

            request.Headers.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", AuthenticationToken);
            request.Headers.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

            await base.ProcessHttpRequestAsync(request, cancellationToken);
        }

At the end I want to add a feedback to say even it works like we discussed the documentation still not clear as we are used to have in the official Microsoft documentation.

Thanks for the feedback! We are routing this to the appropriate team for follow-up. cc @miaojiang.
